“The continuous strides we are making in health care enhance the lives of those in our communities,” she says. “It make me extremely proud to be a part of it.”

Born and raised on the beautiful Island of Jamaica, Sheena says it really is as pretty as it looks. Although she is quick to volunteer and lend a hand, it may surprise you to learn that she is actually quite introverted. She also prides herself on being very resilient.
